Fuel economy data from fueleconomy.gov (EPA / U.S. Dept. of Energy). Annual cost based on 15,000 mi/yr at 55% city driving and current fuel prices. MPG is U.S. gallons; L/100km converted. Ranges reflect the 2 tested variants for this model year.
Engine issues dominate the complaint picture for the 2017 Jaguar F-Pace, with cooling system failures being the most consistently described problem. Owners frequently report coolant leaks, often tracing them to plastic tubing and coupling joints within the cooling system. Several owners describe these leaks as recurring rather than one-time events. More serious outcomes also appear in the complaint set, head gasket failures and complete engine failures, with at least some of the latter tied to water pump failures that led to overheating, oil pressure loss, and eventual engine damage. A handful of owners note that dashboard temperature gauges did not accurately reflect the overheating as it was occurring. The fuel and propulsion system and powertrain round out the most-reported categories, though at lower volumes. Headlamp condensation causing beam faults appears in isolated reports but is not a dominant theme across the complaint set.

By System
The 2017 Jaguar F-Pace has 7 recalls, the most serious involving fuel system and driveshaft defects that can cause a fire or sudden loss of drive power while underway.
Two separate fuel system issues affect this vehicle depending on engine: on 2.0L diesel models, a fuel return hose can leak fuel onto the road, creating a skid hazard for other drivers and a fire risk if fuel contacts an ignition source; on one specific 3.0L model, an over-length bolt can leave the high-pressure fuel pump unsecured, cracking the fuel line and leaking fuel into the engine compartment. On the drivetrain side, certain automatic transmission vehicles may have been built with a rear driveshaft that is too short or otherwise mismatched, and it can separate from the differential while driving, cutting power to the wheels without warning. There is also an electrical concern shared across several filings: the instrument cluster can go blank intermittently, leaving the driver without a speedometer or warning lights while the vehicle is in motion.

At a glance
What can fail
The bolt securing the high-pressure fuel pump may be too long, causing the pump to not be properly secured. This can lead to a cracked fuel line that leaks fuel.
What the fix does
A dealer will replace both fuel pumps and the associated fuel lines at no cost to you.

What can fail
The fuel return hose on certain vehicles with a 2.0L diesel engine can leak fuel onto the road, creating a skid hazard. A fuel leak near an ignition source could also cause a fire.
What the fix does
Your dealer will replace the fuel return hose.

What can fail
Some vehicles may have the wrong rear driveshaft installed. This can cause oil leaks, vibration, or the driveshaft to separate from the differential, resulting in loss of power.
What the fix does
Dealers will inspect your rear driveshaft and replace it if needed.
